A Twin Tale

Hi Everyone! Happy Friday!

So we have just one crib right now, and are trying to put off buying a second until we know what's happening with my husband's job search/our potential move.

In the interim, my husband, engineer that he is, custom-installed a breathable bumper so that each kid has a side--we joke that they each have their own cubicle--so they have their own space and are less likely to wake each other up.

Our daughter, Zoey, is awfully easy to put to sleep at night--solids, bath, bottle or breastfeed and she's out.

Luke, on the other hand, doesn't really want to go to sleep. Often, I'll sit with him in the dark in my office, him on my lap while I finish up the day's work...he'll drift off like that. But the past few nights we've been trying to transition him into being put down with his sister.

Last night, Zoey went to bed no big deal like always. We put Luke down and he screamed and screamed (oh, breaks my heart...so awful). It lasted about 15 minutes and after that, silence. I peeked in to check on him, and wouldn't you know, Zoey had leapt the barrier and was over on Luke's side, the two of them curled up together. 

My husband says she went over to say, "Hey, quiet it down over there! Some of us are trying to sleep!"

I like to think she went over to give her little brother comfort and love. :)

Hope you all have a great weekend. Thanks for spending some time here this week.

XOXO
